So who will be first with an electric pickup. And when.

I was referring to conventional RV solar for the house. Not the traction battery. When we dry camp it also sometimes involve non sunny spots so RV solar is sometimes not a great assist. Access to the 100- 150 KWH vehicle traction battery would be useful for us for smaller loads. May not work for your uses. Even if you pulled 4 KW a day for 7 days of camping it would be little load for the traction battery. 4 KW can go a long way when dry camping...at least for us. Every body camps different.

I also was referring to conventional RV solar.

4kw for 7 days is a crazy amount of power. That's 672kwh. Back when we had a house, our electric bill was typically only half that with the central air running.

If you meant 4kwh per day...that's around 28kwh.
- That's not much power so, it would have to be marketed as very limited or you would have people burning thru too much power and running out of power.
- Even if that fits you electric usage, it leaves you with a pretty narrow range of usefulness. If the RV has a 150kwh battery...that's going to eat up 20% of range (realistically more like 25% since you don't want to go to 0% on the batteries) that leaves you only around 80kwh. Assuming you are pulling power at 3 times what a tesla does and you keep a 20% reserve in case you need to detour or otherwise use more than expected, you are limited to camping within 40 miles of home.

This feature might come out but it likely wouldn't be geared toward the RV market but contractors.
